Talk:Eric Verdin

Citing different sources
Hello, I would like to cite more secondary/tertiary sources for this article.

1. Source for his educational background: https://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/news/2018/07/05/ceo-eric-verdin-buck-institute-pharma.html 2. Source for his affiliation with UCSF: https://www.northbaybusinessjournal.com/northbay/marincounty/6482105-181/buck-institute-aging-research-biotech-novato 3. Source for HDACs: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3970420/ 4. Source for being highly cited: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=SKFD2LcAAAAJ&hl=en. We will need to actually change the sentence into: "He is a highly cited scientist with h-index of 103 and has been recognized for his research with a Glenn Award for Research in Biological Mechanisms of Aging and a senior scholarship from the Ellison Medical Foundation." 5. Source for the number of patents: https://patents.justia.com/inventor/eric-verdin 6. Source for number of papers: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=SKFD2LcAAAAJ&hl=en. Can we change the sentence into: "He has published more than 300 scientific papers and currently holds 20 patents."?

Also, I would like to add a sentence about how Dr. Verdin was involved with the launch of a biotechnology company called Napa Therapeutics in August 2018: "Napa Therapeutics, a biotechnology company that focuses on developing drugs against aging-related targets, was built on the NAD metabolism research from Verdin's lab." Here is the source: https://www.biospace.com/article/buck-institute-insilico-med-and-juvenescence-found-napa-therapeutics-to-focus-on-age-related-diseases/.

removing a warning box at the top of the page
Hello, I am the Communications Manager at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging and would like to have the warning removed from the top of our CEO's page. It says: "This article may have been created or edited for undisclosed payments..." I have posted a disclosure statement that i work for the organization for which i am trying to edit the page and the CEO's page. How can i have that warning box removed? There are edits the CEO would like to his page - updates to his bio.

Thank you! Chloe — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chloecaviness (talk • contribs) 18:06, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

 * You were not the paid editor that edited this page undisclosed though. Additionally you should only post suggestions here and not edit the article directly. Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 10:05, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
